	Competitive ''Smash 64'' has maintained a small following since the release of ''Melee''. Despite being the oldest ''Smash'' game with the least character diversity, it still has an active and dedicated playerbase, with many players having played the game for many years. In addition to the traditional in-person tournaments, more recent play has also taken place over the Internet through services like Kaillera.

	''[[Project M]]'', a ''Brawl'' mod featuring design and gameplay like that of ''Melee''{{'}}s, has also seen a number of tournaments dedicated to it. Beginning in 2013, the game saw a rapid rise in popularity and was increasingly featured at ''Smash'' tournaments, including supermajors such as [[Apex 2014]]. Initially restricted to a side-event at many tournaments, ''Project M'' later developed its own unique tournament scene, with some tournaments being devoted almost solely to the game. However, since ''Project M'' is not endorsed by Nintendo, many major e-sports organizations and large grassroots tournaments have refused to include the game in their lineups, and many streaming groups also refuse to stream ''PM'' tournaments altogether, due to fears of legal issues over the mod. Although these blows have caused the game to lose some ground to ''Melee'' and ''Smash 4'', it is still supported by a vibrant and active community of players and tournaments, and it is still commonly featured at smaller ~~nationals~~ and at side events at larger ~~nationals~~.
